Andy Murray will play Grigor Dimitrov in the second round of the US Open after beating Corentin Moutet in straight sets on Tuesday. It was a historic moment for Murray as he secured his 200th Grand Slam win in a singles event, and his three children were there to see him play abroad for the very first time.<\/p>\n

Murray became the ninth men’s player of all time to reach 200 Grand Slam wins, and his family was there to witness the occasion.<\/p>\n

His wife Kim Sears and their three children all travelled to New York as part of their summer holidays, with Murray scheduled to play in Toronto, Cincinnati and then the US Open. After discovering a small abdominal tear, Murray was forced to withdraw from the Canadian Open before deciding to skip the Cincinnati Masters in order to focus on getting fit for the final major of 2023.<\/p>\n

He returned in style with a comfortable win over Moutet, but it turns out he had the extra incentive of playing in front of his family. It’s rare that his children ever see him play, and it meant a lot to the three-time Grand Slam winner.<\/p>\n

Their first taste of tennis action abroad was rather unique, as Murray’s opponent pulled out a lot of tricks on the court. The Frenchman entertained and frustrated the crowd at times, especially when showing his frustration to the umpire after being denied pickle juice from a physio.<\/p>\n

But Murray wasn’t bothered as he won in as little time as possible, and will now spend Tuesday night with his family before they head home. “Yeah, so they’ve not been to really any tournaments for a long time, since we had the third kid,” Murray revealed after the match.<\/p>\n

“I don’t think they’ve been to any tournaments except they drove to Nottingham obviously for the day. Not abroad. It’s the end of the summer holidays. My wife was looking for a bit of a change of scene. It’s not easy when the kids are off school. It’s tough,” he said smiling.<\/p>\n

“But, yeah, it’s brilliant they managed to come out. That was the one benefit of the injury that I had was that I didn’t play in Cincinnati, so I got to spend more time with them.<\/p>\n

“They’re actually flying home tomorrow to try and help them get over the jet lag before school starts next week. They’ve enjoyed New York, I think.”<\/p>\n

Murray will now face Dimitrov without his children present, and it’s expected to be a much tougher occasion. Dimitrov did battle back to win a five-set thriller against Alex Molcan though, and may be feeling the fatigue.<\/p>\n
